Growing potatoes in a bag
was an utter fail. I did 4 bags.
I got more potatoes from the potatoes I didn't plant that just popped up in my garden this year than I did from all 4 bags combined.
Re: Growing potatoes in a bag
I'm sorry
Good to know, though. I've been thinking about trying potatoes next year and was contemplating the bags, but it gets so soggy here I was skeptical.
Have you seen this?

Sometimes I wonder if scientists have never seen a sci-fi movie before. "Oh yes, let's create a super species of deer. NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG." I wonder if State Farm offers a Zombie Deer Attack policy. -CaliopeSpidrman
A friend told me you could grow potatoes in a large garbage (clean) can. I'm contemplating it. Obviously you just add dirt/top soil as it grows taller, but supposedly it can be done. Here is a quick read on it:
